Farewell Ballad - Fast Section (Reeaaally Slowly!!)

[sutorat]

hey man i am strugglin with the fast part i just can`t get my right hand fast enough cuz i have some difficulties with the fact that you have to go to 13g and back to 10 at b

the same with the lower strings, could you give me some tips on how i could build up speed? i hope you can help me cuz i really want to play this song i just cant because i have problemes with the fast part :(

[evilotto77cheese]

@sutorat Sorry to say it man but you've just got to keep doing it - speed comes with practise, just gotta stick with it over time and you'll get there

[sutorat]

@evilotto77cheese ok thanks for the tip, how long did it took for you to get the speed?

[evilotto77cheese]

@sutorat Well I first learned this song about 4 years ago

[sutorat]

@evilotto77cheese ah, that explains how you got to the speed :) hey thanks man imma practice a lot :)

[wallavious]

THANK YOU

[MultiEdgi]

could you play this faster please? ;)

[iizguitarBen3]

Thanks soo much!!!! I can finally play it!!!!

[alfidino]

hey there, i came across this vid- appreciate u upload this.. question, at 0.40secs, when u played 13th and 15th fret and mute the 10th fret, do u play just the b and e strings , or it's b , e and g strings as well? i was trying to observe it but just couldnt see properly..

[evilotto77cheese]

@alfidino The 10th fret isn't muted there - you're using that as the 'base note': it's a pull-off from 15 to 13 to 10 on the B string, then 13 on the G string, then 10 on the B string. The 15-13-10 pull-off is a 16nt note triplet, the last two notes are just 16th notes

Hope that helps!

[yubtub89]

great help, which guitar strings are those?

[evilotto77cheese]

@yubtub89 I use Ernie Ball

[TheSynyster1996]

@evilotto77cheese ernie ball guitar strings sounds awesome!

[MrSuicideMan]

woow that was very helpfull thanks

[Arvains]

awesome! gj! how did you learn that??

[olaivo]

you use your index finger only on the high E string or on the B and E string? Cause when I only put it on the E string I tend to get an open B sound

[evilotto77cheese]

@olaivo I only have mine on the E string - it just comes with practice really. I tend to use my picking hand to help mute the other strings

[whatulookenat639]

Thanks alot i will pick every o9ne then!...ill subscribe!..please return the love haha

[whatulookenat639]

Hello, great guitar play! but i have a question..at 14sec i see you doing pull offs but then you start pick so witch is it all pull of or picking each note?

[evilotto77cheese]

@whatulookenat639 It's up to you really, whatever feels best for you! Either way just make sure it's really cleanly played and it will sound good

(Zakk does pick every note though, so if you want to do it 'properly' then that's what you should do)

[simfusion]

tks a lot dude

[34bighitter]

how did the cut-away get like tht? is there some awsome rock story behind it or is it a vintage guitar? (just curious)

[nikos4tw]

can you give me tabs plz???

[tazcrazycrash]

five stars thanks

[robevh]

wow man thanks so much for this, it aint easy seein as i've only been playin a few months and can play right up to the last ben on the 13th fret on the B string but didn't ever ever think i could get the fast part, seriously making good progress my wrist is killin me, my fingertips are shot but hey its worth it lol!! Keep it up man SDMF!!!

[Californiaguitar86]

woa u can play this way easier, but I can't explain it

[AndeDK]

Thanks alot for this video, had an idea of this but its great to see i was right :) I just have one problem.

When i play 15 and 13 fret on e string, and i go up on b and play 13 fret, i get the b string to ring alot when i lift up my finger again. How do you mute the string that fast so i wont ring when you lift it? Thats the only thing annoying me :)

[evilotto77cheese]

@AndeDK Well I have my index finger muting the b string, as well as fretting the 10th fret. That way, you play the b string like normal but it won't make any noise when you take your finger off

[AndeDK]

Ye tryed that, works kinda ok :) Thanks.

Now its just workin on technique :)

[bonakid22222]

hey man use your pinky.but nvm dude. you rock. thanks. ^^

[EredLuin87]

the changeover 1st to 2nd string is not clear..what are you playing? I don't understand

[theishjort]

sick ass video i learned alot there hardcore dude

[GermanMcGee]

nooo on the fast section is hammering OK but you have it make god

[flipp151]

no, it's not hammering..

[zackczj]

hey do you follow the tabs in ultimate-guitar? cos the tabs there look different.

[xanaxou78]

really thx for this lesson i hope this time i can finish farewell ballad

[pdani]

thx helped a lot ! can u do the another fast part pls? 1:04 to 1:10

[hoticetea]

I also want to know how to play the another fast section. Please...

[evilotto77cheese]

It's the same

[skitzovagabond]

cant you just do a tutorial rather then showing us in just slow motion?

[L3gitGuitarist]

lmao thanks (Y)

[rebel200794]

The Les Paul looks beautifal in this light.

[Hermdo]

its an esp i think

[evilotto77cheese]

No, it's a Vintage

[chadvipe2]

Kudos bro, I finally figured out the fast part. thx

[IronButcher1]

u should redo a cover of farewell ballad, seems like u got better at it

[evilotto77cheese]

If you search for 'Farewell Ballad - Marshall JVM and Epiphone Explorer' that's my latest version

[evilotto77cheese]

You could do it with any amp that has a line out or something similar (I used one of the less powerful alternate cabinet outputs on the back of mine)

[evilotto77cheese]

Well I plug it into a digitech RP90 pedal first, and then plug the headphone output of that into the microphone socket.

That way if anything breaks it'll be the RP90 which is cheap and easy to replace

[DevonatorMetalMaster]

lol when i clicked on the vid all i saw was "Farewell Ballad - Fast Section..." and i started watching the vid and i was like NOOB but then i saw the full title xD

[evilotto77cheese]

No, normally I plug the amp straight into my computer through the microphone socket and the quality's even better

[evilotto77cheese]

This was just the mic on the camera (that's why it's only coming out of the left speaker)

[misterhiro4160]

SLOWER

D:

[JESSVL84]

Not slow enough.... Lol jk

[wingeddemon5807]

i cant hear anything?

[toddastewart]

turn your speakers on.... just kidding :P

[wingeddemon5807]

i know... something wrong with the video

[evilotto77cheese]

I think it must be something to do with your computer, it works fine on mine

[ShakingAtTheKnees]

Awesome
